To raise money for the music program, your choir sells programs for $.50 and CDs of its music for $5. It costs $.15 to produce each program and $1.75 for each CD. Everything sells for $400 yielding a profit of $265. How many CDs were made?

60 CDs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Price of program = $0.5

Price of music = $5

Cost of production :

Program = $0.15 per program

CD = $1.75 per CD

Revenue made= $400

Profit made = $265

Number of CD produced =?

Let Number of CD's = x and program = y

$(0.5y + 5x) = 400

Y = (400 - 5x) / 0.5

y = 800 - 10x

Production :

$(1.75x + 0.15y)

Total cost of production - Revenue made = profit

(1.75x + 0.15y) - (5x + 0.5y) = 265

1.75x + 0.15y - 5x - 0.5y = 265

1.75x - 5x 0.15y - 0.15y = 265

3.25x + 0.35y = 265 - - - (2)

Put y = 800 - 10x in (2)

3.25x + 0.35y = 265

3.25x + 0.35(800 - 10x) = 265

3.25x + 280 - 3.5x = 265

-0.25x = - 15

x = 15/ 0.25

x = 60

answer: the answer is 5/22

step-by-step explanation: if you subtract 17 from 22 the answer is 5 therefore the remainder of students are female
